It's great that someone has finally quantified this critically important phenomenon, but looking at the equation I wonder whether they've really isolated all the factors.

For instance, is there no difference between men and women? For that matter, what about sexual preference? Type of drink, setting (other than smokiness of the room), time of the year? It seems to me that these questions need to be answered before the formula can really be put to practical use.
